It seems more and more members of the Polish Community have not accepted the apology offered by SBS TV in regards to the scandalous term “Polish death camp”, used in reference to Auschwitz. Here is the response issued by the Polish Community Council of Australia President, Dr Janusz Rygielski:

The night in Tiananmen Square
Hope and tension are on their faces.
No fear is seen, no horror.
They don’t know what’s going to happen.
They don’t know their destiny yet.
We, TV-news watchers, comfortably sitting in the safe homes,

There’s some serious fun to be had when you rearrange the letters in certain words or phrases. The results can be amazing. Below we have published some examples, but our favourite is this: change the letters in “MOTHER IN LAW” and what do you get? WOMAN HITLER. Well, ain’t that the truth !! :-))

The trick is to use all the letters in a given phrase, so that there are no letters left over. You also must use every letter ONLY ONCE!! It’s not that easy, but it’s worth it. :-))))
